During the summer of 1990 in Chile, a small group of families lives in an isolated community right below the Andes, building a new world away from the urban excesses, with the emerging freedom that followed the recent end of the dictatorship. In this time of change and reckoning, 16-year-old Sof\u00eda and Lucas, and 10-year-old Clara, neighbours in this dry land, struggle with parents, first loves, and fears, as they prepare a big party for New Year\u2019s Eve. They may live far from the dangers of the city, but not from those of nature.<\/p>\n
Dominga Sotomayor Castillo, director and writer of the film, shows the powerful coming of age stories of two <\/span>teenagers and one kid; evoking a fourth coming of age; a new Chile. The<\/span> director shows great talent by<\/span> building a groundbreaking \u201cMise-en-sc\u00e8ne\u201d which delivers a film with a heightened sensory experience: one can almost embrace and smell the sultry days of summer. <\/span>Once William Faulkner wrote in \u201cLight in August\u201d: <\/span><\/em>\u201c<\/span>Memory believes before knowing remembers<\/span>\u201d<\/span>. <\/span><\/em>Tarde Para Morir Joven<\/span> is about this. Sotomayor <\/span>makes a poetic movie that is a statement about nostalgia. Using a contemplative, delicate and sensitive gaze, the filmmaker create a series of scenes that seem like postcards from a bucolic past–a past that would never come back, a past that <\/span><\/em>believes before knowing<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n Daniel Sanchez Lopez<\/span><\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”2\/3″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n Dominga Sotomayor studied Audiovisual Directing at Universidad Cat\u00f3lica de Chile, and a Masters in Directing at ESCAC in Barcelona.
